Certified Pet Care Specialist

Pet care experience

I've worked at training/boarding facilities, apprenticed for a licensed dog behavioralist and also worked at PetSmart as a Pet Care Specialist in the Pet's Hotel and a professional bather in the Grooming Salon. I'll always do my best to reinforce good manners and behaviors during my visits. I hope to hear from you soon

Nala was wonderful. She was responsive and flexible to meet and arrange the week of coverage we needed over the holidays. She was great with Sunny, our 1.5 year old Aussie. She was knowledgeable - offering training tips and tricks, and provided excellent notes, texting daily with updates as requested and a thorough summary upon our return. I highly recommend her and will definitely request her services again.

Nala has always been good with dogs and cats. She is always learning new information about every thing pet related. She taught me a lot about nutrition for my own cats and I've never seen them happier and healthier. She also takes very good care of her rescued dog Goldie and has completely turned that dog's life around. If you knew that dog before she was with Nala you would swear it was a different dog. Nala takes pride in what she does best and her love for animals can be felt in every way. She will love your pets as if they are her own.

Information Nala J. would like to know about your pet

I would just like to know any behaviors you want me to keep an eye on like barking, chewing, drooling or pulling. As a pet care specialist, I'm also trained to identify any possible health problems like ear infections, mats, diarrhea, unusual behaviors like limping, coughing wheezing. So be assured, when your dog is with me, every aspect of their well being will be on my mind. I also have experience with all kinds of breeds, especially pitbulls. The behavioralist I worked with specialized with that breed and I so happen to own one too.

A typical day

I know of many safe and fun parks that I've taken my own dogs to. Or if you have places you'd like them to go I can walk them there, like around your neighborhood or a shopping mall, whichever sounds good for you. (P.S. I also took photography for 7 years so be assured you're going to have amazing photos of your dog wherever we go)

Right now I'm talking online courses to prepare for a new job. I can house sit during the day and take breaks to walk and play with your dog. My dog Luna loves to play so if our pets are compatible she can occupy them as well.
